Stop the eviction: 5 months of rent for Eduardo's family in Mendoza

A final eviction notice arrived last week. Eduardo needs $350 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Mendoza.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $350. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave. I have two young children at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. I have started working extra hours at a market stall, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here. Funds go to the landlord and nowhere else. Any amount left over after the arrears are cleared will go toward next month's rent. Where the $350 goes: • First month of rent as a buffer: $240 • Utilities in arrears: $65 • Late fees and court costs: $45 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Eduardo

        reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.

            Keep going. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Liverpool this morning. Love from Liverpool.
